Are these supposed to be her friends? Because those faces seem to be expressing rage, disdain, even outright hatred.
Sorority, I presume.
Sounds like friends to me.
Only in she presence of true friends will some women feel safe enough to allow the fierce expressions of power truly be seen.
I dunno, sounds like just about every bipedal friend I’ve ever known. Is this behavior actually meant to be somehow out of the ordinary?
It’s reasonable for them to have strong emotions about their friend being gone for three days without telling anyone or apparently preparing for it, and coming back with a sword and a bindi. I think the apparent negativity is probably because we’re seeing the scene through the lens of her perception, and she’s scared and uncomfortable with what’s been happening to her.
Blue Hair friend has got your back, don’t worry about a thing.
…that is a surprisingly reasonable way to explain the key in her forehead.
A sword is either a brutal tool of horrific slaughter, or a marvelous instrument possessed of singular beauty too great to be expressed through any medium other than the universal language that is bloodshed. Neither is a suitable topic for conversation.
That is poetry. May I paste it someplace with attributions?
Did my prior message get swallowed? A shame.
May I borrow that quote with attribution?
If you wish to, I have no objection.
I can’t wait for the book 1 to be concluded and printed, so that I can hold its glorious physical manifestation with my own two hands.
Reach Heaven through Violence.
Reach Accord through Shouting Very Loudly.
I haven’t even met these people and they’re frustrating me… is that normal?
Ah, she has multiple roommates! And they seem like quite the characters. I must say I rather enjoy their diversity in both design and personality. It’s rare to see, unfortunately.
I imagine our dear Allison must be dying for a proper meal. How long has she been away from her home plane, anyway? And what is she going to do about the demon? I doubt it’s a good idea to just leave it lying there, especially since her roommates seem rather inquisitive. Questions, questions..
On the one hand, it’s nice to have friends who care.
On the other hand, it can be really inconvenient to have friends who care.
More like it’s not a good idea to just leave it lying there, ESPECIALLY NEXT TO AN OPEN DRAIN WHICH IT IS SMALL ENOUGH TO FIT DOWN.
Ah! the unguarded plughole – doom-bringer of wedding rings and daemons alike.
I’m so glad Alison got herself better roommates compared to her proto-incarnation
What could you mean? They were WONDERFULLY INTERESTING people, and such GOOD FRIENDS! Proto-Allison could not have been happier fitting in like that!
That girl have a bindi sign on the forth panel. And then it vanishes.
I think that might be a mole.
I guess it’s perfectly normal for it to vanish then. Also it’s a bindi. 🙂
Well moles do burrow, you know.
I love this comic and would likely buy a book should one become available. In the second last panel my mind placed in an f-bomb when I first read it. I’d be pretty nervous if I were her.
I like how one of her roommates is genre-savvy enough to ask if she’s been to Narnia after seeing the sword.
We are not familiar with the consumption of devil flesh in my universe. Must the girl consume the devil while it is alive, or may she cook it first? Roasted Baby Blue Devil does not sound like an unappealing treat, to us.
In my mind-addledness, I keep going back and missing the part where it is revealed that she had a demon growing in her. What page is that? Also, red sweater girl seems like a sensible type- wise beyond her years. Surely not a fool like I.
It was spoken by the angel numbered 82 such that the liquid from a blue devil would allow temporary understanding of Language, but that the internally grown devil resulting from the process would need to be devoured to make the effect permanent.
An offhand comment to be sure, but observable nevertheless.
We are not familiar with the consumption of devil flesh in our universe. Must the girl eat the devil while it is still alive, or may she kill it and cook it first? Roasted Baby Blue Devil does not sound unappetizing to most of us.
Aha! Grand highlord of the bards, oh ye who tells us this grand tale of ascension~! Abbadon! Hear my inquiry! Either pity me, laugh, or answer me! I have been thinking for a while- ever since I saw her face at first, in fact~! Is it possible that the room-mate woman is somewhat related to the beggar knight? The one who seems to be as Meti’s apprentice~? They are both portly, of similar complexion, and both are now associated with food~!!
Perhaps they are the selfsame of a different story? Oh! Dare I say it? I must know! It eats at me, plainly it does! Aha!
They might be different reflections of the same primal form. The selfsame that you mentioned.
I like this theory, I am stealing it for my own.
You cannot steal an idea, friend. You can only agree! Aha! Though I am glad either way. Perhaps in framing it as stealing, you show your truest, violent heart, which is blessed by YISUN. I praise such commentizeation, then~!
I wonder how long it’s going to take before the extradimensional monsters show up looking for her. 😉
It would be funny, I think, if Cio were to walk in with a hat, and drinking of the jamba juice. Yes. Aha!
I don’t think she wants to talk about the sword, yo.
Also, does Throne count as Narnia if Narnia had Hunter Thompson?
Her roommates remind me of the Seven at the meeting. Might be a coincidence.
They are all actually Gog-Agog, assuming many different forms. Clearly.
These are none other than the Five Handmaidens of Strife who tested The Sovereign before and during her rise. The exploits of the FHoS are legendary! Such as the Three Nights of Hangovers and the drafting of the We Shall Not Wear The Same Shoes Accord.
Ah it seems I truly am I fool, ‘red sweater girl’ is clearly named Marisa. A strong, sensibly wise name.
Quite the multicultural team of concerned friends.
I am so worried leaving that demon by the drain. Hope if grows up to be an adversary, ally, or other. @-@
Yeah, we don’t need any more lawyers. Better squash him.
I’m thinking of the same thing actually, there’s no way she’ll just gobble it up and be on her merry way! The story cries out for bloodshed and conflict!
“Is that a bindi?”
No, gurl, it is a key of cosmic power that got shoved into my head by a knight who got decapitated, AFTER he got decapitated. It goes so well with my sink devil and huge-ass sword.
I reckon the small devil will slip into the sink hole and grow in the sewers, resulting in a massive monster rampage, devil flesh munchies for da whole crew!
we wonder if it has the same effects if consumed in water… what if they divide and get into human water treatment plants?
Divide in water? You mean like gremlins in the movie named after them?
Maybe it’ll learn to sing like that one from the sequel.
what is that little demon she threw up? i forgot where she got it and what it does
She ate blue demon meat so apparently that means she got stomach-pregnant with a blue demon baby.
i wonder what would happen if that demon got into the sewers and eventually into water plants or something… do they multiply by mitosis? if so we are in big trouble… after all, there’s more than 6 billion people aren’t there?
Is it for us to talk about the sword? A brush of phallic fallacy? Is it for us to talk about the double edge of a single tool? Who are we to queston the presence of the tool of mastery and slaughter? The answer is simple: no.
